We had a wonderful experience working with the Atherton Homes at Griffin Park in Manteca team! They worked with us every step of the way and made several ADA accommodations. We also had a wonderful experience with their preferred lender, Guild Mortgage! We took possession of the keys on time in early Spring 2026, just as promised! read more

Bought my Atherton home in 2018. I absolutely love my home. It is exactly what I wanted. On a court. Large lot. Responsive staff. I haven't had any issues. I would recommend this builder, sales and service team. read more

Not worth the almost $600K paid for the smallest plan! They were 4 months late for completion and would not offer any kind of compensation!! Less than 1 year old!! Exterior doors are out of alignment,(light shows thru n bugs come in), garage door lets in tons of heat n cold air n rattles with the wind and wakes you up! AC in M bath does not cool/heat enough and they never fixed it! You can hear wind whistling thru the window latches and feel cold/hot air coming into the house! Even upgraded carpet is low pile with nails all around edges! Water makes a very loud noise and will wake you up! Not very good fence quality and drainage from downspouts have no drainage extensions so it could damage the slab! Poor paint job, poor cabinet alignment and they would not repair that! I'm sure many more issues will be popping up soon. How in the world did the City Inspectors miss all this??!! Not worth the money they are asking!! read more

I work for a glo bal relocation assistance company. Last July I was given an assignment to assist a person relocating from Mexico. At the time, we saw the Atherton and the client decided this was the place for her. Unfortunately, due to immigration and other issues, the client didn't get here until January. If it wasn't for the fantastic leasing team of Laura, Lexi and Jordan, we would have never been able to complete the process due to a series of additional issues. The complex is beautiful, the pri es are reasonable, and the apartment is perfect. read more

Beautiful construction. Excellent sales and support staff. Have looked at many new developments and found homes from Atherton a cut above.

Their first come first serve forms and access was rigged. I tried for a whole year and gave up. Also the male agent there stated to an Indian guy we know touring his new home who told him not to let us in on the homes for whatever twisted reason makes me believe they go for the truckers not for those who have actual jobs. Don't bother buying here. read more

Have had more problems with my Atherton home in 5 short years vs the 10 years I lived in a KB home. Air conditioning problems, lighting issues , grout between tile coming up, ripples all through the carpet, crack in the master shower wall for no reason. This is not an upgrade, this is a money pit. Will never by another Atherton again. read more

Our first brand new home was built by Atherton. We are so very pleased from the beginning of picking our lots with Justin. Hannah and Emilia, both were so helpful. The tile in our master bedroom and guest bathrooms were of the wrong color. Emilia, quickly had them replaced!!! Great customer service!!! Love all the options we picked lighting window coverings etc. Emilia's expert guidance helped us with our beautiful home. We have meet several people wanting to buy their SECOND Atherton Home! We got our keys yesterday and I am happy of the quality of my new home! Than you! Atherton Homes in Manteca, Ca!!! read more

I've owned homes by 3 other builders. This is my second Atherton home. My experience with Atherton has been most favorable. The quality and attention to detail is superior. No human made anything is going to be perfect. The difference is in the care. So many little things added into the initial purchase price as well! So many builders will nickel and dime you for everything from windowsills to LED lighting and so much more, all were included at Atherton. I highly recommend Atherton builders tp anyone looking. read more

On our second Atherton home and very satisfied. These Solera homes are high quality, with great floorplans, high efficiency and nice community layout. Office staff are very helpful and treat you like family. New construction is never without a couple imperfections no matter what the cost. I saw complaint about settling cracks, which I haven't experienced yet, but I fully expect to see some over time as this is normal. read more

Atherton "settling cracks" supposedly changed their settling crack policies that were sent in writing and reiterated through out the year by all Atherton Staff not to turn in any until we recieved the year letter because your house is still settling....Which made sense or so we thought.... On the year letter it indicates they would repair ANY settling cracks. I wrote my fix/repair list and included settling cracks. Which the change in policy was never indicated in writing and not even upon review of our repair list. It was only mentioned when Atherton came to review our list and they said they would follow up with us. They did not... We continuosly had contact them and then that's when they indicated they had a change in policy, however upon my discovery and talking with other home owners they are still sending out the same exact letter after they told us they had a change in policy. Note: paying over $500k for a house and this is how you're treated. Buyer be ware!!!! read more

Only at Atherton Manteca can you find this array of STUNNING custom craftsman floor plans, at price that makes leaving the Bay Area worth it!! Plus, the office staff made our choice to choose Atherton, pick our lot, etc a wonderful experience. Now if only we could speed up time!! Cant wait til next year, thanks Atherton Homes!! read more

I'm having a home built by Atherton homes in Manteca. After looking at several other models from other builders in the area they offer the best deal for your money. Their houses cost more but they offer much more standard options. The other builders models are cheap cookie cutter homes with little to no options included. The huge back patio and concrete is also included on some of their homes. I'm using their in house lender too. I'll be getting $10,000 in options and $10,000 in closing cost back. Their lender is very friendly, honest and works for you not against you. The FHA lending cap in Manteca is $304,750, that's not mandated by their lender it's the county. If your planning on using FHA I wouldn't bother looking here for a home their cheapest home is $350,000. Do yourself a favor and take a look for yourself. read more

If I could give 0 starts I would!! My husband and I have had terrible experiences with Atherton Homes. Not only the construction of the home, but with the office staff at the Manteca location as well. Our home is 100% tile and all the tile is having to be 100% replaced because it was installed incorrectly. Although this mistake was at the hand of Atherton Homes they are expecting US to move our entire home into PODS and are not willing to lift a finger because "it is not their responsibility." We have 3 children and my husband and I both work full-time. Also, my grandmother watches our 2 daughters at our home and Atherton is not concerned with the safety of our children while construction and replacement of the tile is taking place. We asked them to please hire a professional moving company to relocate our belongings into PODS because we do not feel we should be held accountable for moving our entire home. They are not willing and were extremely rude to both my husband and I on the phone. We are the only home with 100% tile and Charissa's Alves response was "You are not going to receive special treatment!" Charissa also told my husband on the phone, "Shouldn't you run this by your wife? She seems to be the one making decisions!" Which is extremely unprofessional and disrespectful. The construction and replacement of our tile hasn't even began and we are already dealing with their unprofessionalism. Also, there are over 100 homes that also need tile replaced due to using improver materials to install the tile. The sad fact of the matter is that Atherton is not even notifying the homes that were also affected. They are hoping that homeowners won't notice and will not file a work order. That says A LOT about the credibility of Atherton homes of Manteca. They should be reaching out to homeowners and notifying them about the tile replacement process because it was THEIR mistake. Lastly, we have lived in our home for 3+ years and have made a lot of friends in our neighborhood. Not one person has had positive experiences with the office staff of Atherton in Manteca. We all run into the same issues: disrespectful/rude staff and a long, miserable work order process. So, I am not the only one being treated this way, by far! read more
